explain how the density of the crust, mantle, and core are related
to the position of these layers.

Brainlest will get 100 points

Answers

Answer 1

Core, mantle, and crust are divisions based on composition. The crust makes up less than 1 percent of Earth by mass, consisting of oceanic crust and continental crust is often more felsic rock. The mantle is hot and represents about 68 percent of Earth’s mass. Finally, the core is mostly iron metal. The core makes up about 31% of the Earth. Lithosphere and asthenosphere are divisions based on mechanical properties. The lithosphere is composed of both the crust and the portion of the upper mantle that behaves as a brittle, rigid solid. The asthenosphere is partially molten upper mantle material that behaves plastically and can flow. This animation by Earthquide shows the layers by composition and by mechanical properties.

Determine the mass of CO2 formed if 15 grams of C4H10

Answers

Answer:

[tex]m_{CO_2}=45gCO_2[/tex]

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since the combustion of butane is:

[tex]C_4H_{10}+\frac{13}{2} O_2\rightarrow 4CO_2+5H_2O[/tex]

Thus, since the molar mass of butane is 58.12 g/mol and that of carbon dioxide is 44.01 g/mol, we obtain the following mass of CO2 product:

[tex]m_{CO_2}=15gC_4H_{10}*\frac{1molC_4H_{10}}{58.12gC_4H_{10}} *\frac{4molCO_2}{1molC_4H_{10}} *\frac{44.01gCO_2}{1molCO_2} \\\\m_{CO_2}=45gCO_2[/tex]

Answer:

• The molar amount of the gas

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, according to the ideal gas law:

[tex]PV=nRT[/tex]

Whereas P stands for pressure, V for volume, n for the molar amount of the gas, R for the universal gas constant and T for the temperature, we can see that as pressure, volume and temperature are given, we can compute the molar amount of the gas as shown below:

[tex]n=\frac{PV}{RT}[/tex]

Since R is a constant always.

Answers

Water is a polar molecule that gives rise to this phenomenon.

Water is a polar molecule where,  the positive hydrogen end attracts the negative oxygen ends of another water molecule. Thus, option D is correct.

What is polarity ?

Polarity is ability of charge separation in a molecule. In some molecules, the positive and negative ends exists separately and both ends remains reactive towards the counter charged end of other molecule.

The charge separation  in molecules results in a  dipole moment. Permanent dipole moment make the molecule polar. Water is a polar molecule.

The shared pair of electrons in water are more attracted towards the electronegative oxygen atom leads the charge separation. This polarity helps to the formation of strong intermolecular hydrogen bonding.

A tank of gas is found to exert 8.6 atm at 38°C. What would be the required
temperature to change the pressure to standard pressure?

Answers

Answer:

36.2 K

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Initial pressure of the gas (P₁): 8.6 atmInitial temperature of the gas (T₁): 38°CFinal pressure of the gas (P₂): 1.0 atm (standard pressure)Final temperature of the gas (T₂): ?

Step 2: Convert T₁ to Kelvin

We will use the following expression.

K = °C +273.15

K = 38 °C +273.15 = 311 K

Step 3: Calculate T₂

We will use Gay Lussac's law.

P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂

T₂ = P₂ × T₁/P₁

T₂ = 1.0 atm × 311 K/8.6 atm = 36.2 K

How many moles are in 2.8x10^23 atoms of Calcium?

Answers

Answer: 1 mole ➡️ 6.022×10²³ atoms of si.

X mole ➡️ 2.8×10²⁴ atoms of si.

X = 2.8×10×10²³/6.022×10²³

= 28/6.022

= 4.65 moles.

Explanation:

The total number of moles in 2.8x10^23 atoms of Calcium will be 4.65 moles.

What is a  mole?

The mole is defined as the amount of substance containing the same number of chemical units (atoms, molecules, ions, electrons, or other specified entities or groups of entities) as exactly 12 grams of carbon-12

The mole unit allows us to express amounts of atoms and molecules in visible amounts that we can understand.

For example, we already know that, by definition, a mole of carbon has a mass of exactly 12 g. This means that exactly 12 g of C has 6.022 × 10 23 atoms

1 mole is  6.022×10²³ atoms of calcium

one mole of calcium =  2.8×10²⁴

substitute the value in the equation,

2.8×10²⁴ atoms of calcium  = 2.8×10×10²³/6.022×10²³

total number of moles = 28/6.022= 4.65 moles

Therefore, the total number of moles will be 4.65 moles

You are given 68 g of aluminum (Al) and excess water. How many grams of aluminum oxide (Al2O3) can you make?

4 Al + 3O2 --> 2Al2O3
Question 13 options:


95.84 g Al2O3


2.52 g Al2O3


128.48 g Al2O3


101.96 g Al2O3

Answers

When 6.8776g of aluminium reacts with an excess of oxygen, 6.8776g of aluminium oxide are produced.

What is the name of aluminum oxide?

Al2O3 is an inorganic chemical reagent with the chemical name aluminum oxide. Other names for it include alumina, alundum, al-alumina, and aloxide.

If there are 4 moles of Al that equals 107.926156 grams of 4Al

If there are 2 moles of Al2O3 that equals 203.9226g

If  107.9261 grams of 4Al equals 203.9226 grams of 2Al2O3 then, 3.64g of Al equals x

107.9261 / 3.64 = 203.9226 / x

(107.9261) x = (203.9226) 3.64

107.9261 x = 742.2782

dividing both LHS and RHS by 107.9261,

107.9261/107.9261x = 742.2782/107.9261

                             x = 6.8776g

Hence, 6.8776g of aluminium oxide are produced.

Which would have a stronger attraction to the nucleus, the outer electrons of a carbon atom or the outer electrons of an oxygen atom? Why?

Answers

Outer electrons because they revolve around the nucleus and can be multiple more than one

The outer electron of an oxygen atom will have a stronger attraction to the nucleus than the outer electrons of a carbon atom.

In the periodic table, atomic sizes decrease across the period. This decrease in atomic size stems from increase in the size of the nuclear charge.

This implies that as we move from left to right in the periodic table, atoms of elements become smaller due to stronger nuclear attraction as the size of the nuclear charge becomes larger.

Oxygen atom has a nuclear charge of +8 while carbon atom has a nuclear charge of +6. Therefore,  outer electron of an oxygen atom will have a stronger attraction to the nucleus than the outer electrons of a carbon atom.
